is it possible for people with major mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorder to have this personality disorder as well?

I got diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder this week. This was very informative, my life is not a mystery anymore, I feel very free now. My goal is to become a Commercial Diver, I hope my personality disorder won’t stop me from achieving my goal.

My ex fit this criteria very well. He was actually diagnosed with ASPD later on in our marriage. He has 5 of the 7. Once I found out why I had such difficulty living with him and after trying to help him and that he would never change, I left him. He was very difficult to live with long term. He tried to come back but could only say that he didn't like change after 30 years of marriage. It was not because he loved me or was remorseful, it was because of his own selfish reason of not being able to like change. He had great qualities and was very charismatic and friendly towards strangers and convinced many others that he was "normal" even his family, but his ASD qualities listed here along with sex addiction made living with him unbearable. I was destroyed after living with him. I am recovering but only with lots of counseling and God's help.

The problem is that if not one tells us, we normally try to find reasonable answers for their behaviour. I just left a girlfriend who I'd been dating for 4 years until her lies fell apart and truth hit me like bucket of cold water. She wasn't that good of a liar, rather I was the one setting aside all the red flags do to her making me feel "good" and downplayed her antisocial behaviour. I was lucky, tho.... so far.

That's a fascinating parallel! It's my understanding that meditation affects the pre-frontal cortex.

I used to nanny for a teenager who had RAD, ADHD, learning difficulties, FASD and ASPD, probably ODD. She had been abused and then she was adopted and I worked for her adopted family. I was close to the family and I'd known her since she'd been adopted into the family, so I watched her go from a toddler into an adult. In my time spent with her, I rarely experienced her 'bad' behaviours. She liked me because I was adopted too and for some reason still unknown to me she was always brilliant in my care and I really enjoyed caring for her. However, outside of that, she stabbed her teaches, assaulted other kids, teens or adults, she would run away and legitimately go insane distance and end up in the most crazy dangerous situations, the police were at the house almost every night. As she entered adulthood she spent a short time living in the community but due to her behaviour that became immediately unsafe. She was dangerously promiscuous (I mean that as literally and as clinically as possible), she threatened local gangs and ended up with threats on her life, she best up random people and got beat up, and throughout all of this, she did not ever understand what she was doing wrong. She did not have any remorse, ever because her brain was not at all wired to have it. She didn't understand danger or consequence. She was known to all local police stations and ended up being put out of each area she lived in. Her behaviour became so violent and unmanageable that her family had to send her to live in a residential psychiatric hospital, where she is medicated and kept safe from herself and everyone else. The family were never given support and during her childhood the schools had no idea how to deal with her. I believe if those 2 things were different back then, in childhood, that things could have ended up better, as ASPD or the precursing symptoms are certainly aggravated by the further social trauma or negativity experienced by the person. There are ways to intervene and at least steer a child or teenager in a more productive direction regardless of the disorder. I think past childhood there's very little that can be done to help those with Aspd, unless they present and ask for help themselves, which Is going to be a rare occurrence as they don't necessarily see themselves as being disordered.

My daughter is this with BPD as well. It has really ruined her life despite our spending gobs to access all the gold standard therapy and help. It's sad to see her life rolling downhill and her truly not seeing anything being related to her choices. She has lost most relationships important to her because of burning everyone repeatedly.

20:04 wow...it's like a timeline of my life x.x Minus the last one became I'm not stupid. I have a lot of these, pretty much hitting all the points, except that i take risk into account. As a child, i didn't take risk into account and it got me into trouble a lot (was nearly expelled) so over time i learned to observe and use psychology to aid me with navigating social situations. Learning psychology really changed things but it did also help to observe others and try to identify what did and didn't work for others. I'll usually assess the risk factor of something and then decide if it's worth the trouble or not. For instance, if I'm to steal something then I'd assess the risk of getting caught (since getting caught is a nuisance I'd rather avoid) and if it's low then I'll go ahead and do it. But if the risk of getting caught is too high then it's simply not worth the trouble to me. Somewhat contrary to that, I'll easily cancel plans if I'm suddenly not feeling up to them anymore, usually giving some excuse that wouldn't be questioned. Or decide i suddenly want to do something and make last minute plans. So it really depends on the situation.

Best lecture I’ve heard this far on the personality.

I was all excited until I saw the brain scan until about 2 days ago I had no idea I had an issue i quit everything cold turkey how do I find out if my brains lighting up normally I just want to be a better husband and father not repeating this cycle

Feel that bro

Very detailed information on the subject; thank you for the overview! I appreciate the visuals and layout of the information.

Matthew, Hope this finds you well. Your presentation was excellent and we'll presented. With that being said I can't help but feel that ASPD needs to be researched more thoroughly. As an example I wish there was more research and studies done on women with ASPD. It would (presumably at least) make more sense that women are more likely to not qualify for CPD and therefore not qualify for an ASPD but still meet 5 of the 7 qualifications that fall under ASPD per DSVM-5. There's a Canadian research study that looked into this that provided interesting results. Just something to keep in mind and hopefully of some interest to you.

Thanks Matt, great presentation

You have been the best professional to describe this by far.

I have aspd apparently but I have severe paranoia that genuinely affects my daily life point is, is paranoia to do with aspd? Top it all of I'm epileptic 🤦‍♂️🤯🧐

I’ve asked this on several forums, so I really don’t mind a quick response as I understand that it would be difficult and time consuming to provide a lot of details. I would really appreciate it if you could provide me with either a link to another video, or a brief summary of what somebody with BPD and ASPD (secondary psychopathy or sociopathy traits would behave or feel like). I feel I meet the criteria for both plus am diagnosed with adult ADHD hyperactive/impulsive/inattentive type and have been a heavy substance use consumer for many years. Just the seemingly paradoxically BPD and ASPD almost makes me feel as if I have dual personality, depending on the strength of my attachment or bond to the people in my life.

A perfect example of my ASPD is that I owe money on a ton of credit cards, and yet despite my intentions to use the last one to pay off the minimum payments for the rest to tide me over until I got s job, I just kept spending it until now when I know I won’t be able to pay the minimum payment for even the first one in a couple of weeks, and yet my thought processes will be along these streams, ‘well something will happen to resolve it, or, ‘I’ve got no assets anyway so what can they do?’ Or, ‘I’ll be so bored that threatening letters from bailiffs is quite exciting! The adrenaline lift will break the hours up temporarily anyway!’ 😅 I know it’s not universally accepted to find that humorous, but I’d rather that then damage my heart, by worrying about excessively, which, in effect would have no conceivable benefit and these credit card companies are sharks anyway and make a fortune, so here’s s little payback for making so many people miserable with sleepless nights!’ I’ve no doubt that those are ASPD thoughts and this is precisely why we won’t go fir treatment. Why would I want to learn to feel fear and anxiety? Saying that, I do genuinely appreciate that people do and I roils never judge any of you for that, which is probably why I score extremely low for NPD which I find repulsive, because in my opinion this is the disorder that causes disrespect and intentionally toxic harm for others, whereas I’m only really harming myself- or I guess I am, whether or not I can actually feel that?!

I thought it was concussion, as had been passing out whilst trying to piss in the toilet at my friends house, and accidentally bashing my head into the wall about 10 times. I’m heroin dependent too so that might have played a part. The hospital was really cool and the doctor was very positive about my detox taper plan - as I refused both methadone and therapy despite having sliced my left arm up in a fit of dementedly self-loathing, which was gone an hour later. I actually slipped into the hospital toilet to do some coke as it makes me sleep sometimes and I was bored 😀! Not sure if they have cameras in there but when I came out they came screeching over with a BP monitor and ECG machine. Told me it was all fine and amazingly my blood pressure was 106/61 which I believe may be due to this diminished fear response I seem to have accumulated somewhere along my life’s journey! 😂

cognitive behavioral therapy, and learning how to live with your symptoms almost channeling them toward good. i.e. manipulation, get a sales job. sexual impulse, learn how to maintain healthy relationships to have that met in a healthy way. without affective empathy, you are able to develop cognitive empathy. (empathy is not sympathy, its how you relate to others)shop therapists. find a therapist that specially works with ASPD. the reason to not get help is if you don't want to change, if you want to change, you need to learn from a professionals how to compensate for what you are lacking.
